I just made up a recipe tonight by baking eggs in a baking dish, mixed with a bunch of other things, and my kids loved it!! I was wondering if there is a name for this type of dish, so that I could look up recipes to get ideas for other things my kids might like cooked this way.

Isn't a frittata usually fried? I guess this would be like a baked frittata, but I was wondering if there is a specific name for baking eggs this way. If not, I guess I could just look at those recipes and bake them instead.

I definitely make my frittata baked in the oven (in a regular round baking pan- saute veggies first.) And I've seen recipes like that before.
Traditionally frittata starts off setting in a skillet stovetop, and then it finishes off under the broiler. It's definately not fried.
Look up oven baked frittata.

What type of recipes are you looking for? You can do egg muffins (baked in muffin tins.) And oven baked egg roulade. You can make a fleishig salami or hot dog frittata version.

I really don't know much about this "genre" of food. I was just looking for a protein for my kids for dinner who don't like fish, and I didn't want to do 5 nights of cheese. It was such a hit, and so easy to make, that I want to try other recipes.

I'll try looking up baked frittatas and if anyone has other ideas for this.

Omelette Roulade
-oil for sauteeing
-1 onion, diced
-choice of diced vegetables, including various colored peppers, tomatoes, scallions, red onion, mushrooms, zucchini, or spinach
-10 large eggs
-salt to taste

Saute onions until beginning to soften, about 5-7 minutes. Add vegetables and continue to cook until softened.
Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
While the vegetables are cooking, beat the eggs with salt. Pour onto lined baking sheet. Top with cooked vegetables.
Bake for 15 minutes, in oven preheated to 350, or until eggs are set. Be careful not to overcook.
When eggs are no longer watery, remove from oven. Roll up jelly roll stle - lengthwise, by tightly rolling omelette while pulling back the parchment paper. It should roll very easily.
Once you've rolled the entire omelette, tighten the parchment paper around the roll and twist the two ends of paper like a candy wrapper.
Return to oven and bake for 5 more minutes.
The roulade should slice beautifully.

Frittatas are usually baked.

I call them crustless quiche. Also called a timbale. It's also similar to what's called edja in persian/iraqi cuisine, that has things like grated carrots or chopped greens or courgettes. Normally I sautee the veggies first.
